Bang x GOMI drawing ((((bad artwork warning))))

I have some extra time on my hands as of late, so I thought I'd post this drawing.

I realize it's mediocre at best and that I'm no bradu or Evan Shoman, but considering my effort and skill level, I thought it turned out pretty good. I've always liked this photo- it's right after Gomi drops bang on his ass with a punch.

The first is the original photo I drew it from, then my original sketch scanned in, and the last is the drawing after adjusting the brightness/contrast and saturation on Photoshop.

I suck at drawing faces, but I've actually improved a little bit in drawing hands and fingers. I didn't draw it from the actual photo, just a black and white print-out of it, so the details of Bang's back and some others were weren't very clear.

shoman - your stuff would wind up in a museum 10x faster than mine. you actually did a phenomenal job with perspective. keep at it brother!

Hey Evan. I appreciate the compliment, but I firmly believe you're entirely full of shit. I'm just a doodler, but my fiance is an art major, and I've picked up a lot from her and having her drawings and paintings plastered all over the house. Thanks again for the kind words, and the note on the perspective. Gomi's left arm is too long though.

i suck at teh drawing. way better than anything i can do. still sucks, but you're kicking my ass with it. my mom was an artist (amazing one) but didn't really show it often and even when she sold something she had a real hard time giving it up. she always said it was for her, no one else. so fuck the haters.now draw me a picture of that scared spinning chick!!!!-MM

sub_due - why the harshness? ridicule should be saved for those who choose to never try.

sandy, cool drawing. keep it up.

Awww, there's some nice people on the UG. I really appreciate everyone who dropped an encouraging comment (Hi Crook).

I honestly could care less about any negative criticism. I give it all day long, and I completely understand the drawing could really only be perceived as "good" by someone who doesn't draw or doesn't draw well. It's literally "not very good", but I'm not an artist, nor do I aspire to be.
